Rock Candy Funk Party "Don't Be Stingy With the SMPTE" Music Video

RCFP was never "my thing"...   not quite the ANDY girls.. but... held my attention for a few minutes

I cracked up laughing the first time I saw it. It so fits with the RCFP graphics history (headphones on the boobs, tongue on a lollipop, squatting hottie) And it's so over the top with the women. But it perfectly fits with the late '70's early '80's vibe the guys have going with this band. It's all in good fun. If you notice, the woman playing the keyboard has the thing upside down with the keys on the underside. People who like to pigeon hole Joe, though, will undoubtedly have a field day when they see it. Kind of waiting to see how it all plays out.

Me too, but I'm super cool with that! If you only produce what will appeal to everyone universally, you're not only too narrowly constrained, you're probably also boring.

I'll go back to videos of live performances (thanks Natasha!), the slo-mo guys, Devin Supertramp showing people people having way more fun than me, and guitar pedals run through oscilloscopes. And I don't expect that assemblage has universal appeal either. :-)

Watched this 497 times so far and I cant make my mind up - Need to give it a few more plays ....

I listened to it (I hid the video) and enjoyed it, tapping my foot all the way through. Not my kind of thing, but pretty groovy with some of the old early 1980's drum synth sounds that reminded me of techno-pop acts of my youth, such as Yello and Thomas Dolby. I have no idea why, but when listening to it, I have flashbacks to old American Cop Shows like Kojak, Magnum PI, Miami Vice haha!

Listened again, this time watching the video - erm.... it's a bit weird, the girls are nice... that's it really. Horse for courses though, they have clearly attempted to make it irreverent and strange, a bit like the music in some ways.

It's fun funky background music for me, it's not what I'm into Joe Bonamassa for though, nor is it meant to be. I'm certainly not a fan though, it's not for me and I'll politely pass. I wish them well with it and I'm pretty sure they had fun making the music.

Isn't it funny how people will listen to parts of a new release and say "Oh I like that a lot", and then they might buy it at some point or they might not. It happens to me quite often, that I end up not buying it. It's the exact opposite with Joe, he cannot "scare" me off of a new release with one song that may end up growing on me down the road at some point..... a testimony I guess to his continued level of talent and work ethic.
